New guy here from Texas. Have my first elk hunt planned in Montana, unit 314 or somewhere close around there. Been lurking in here a while mainly for gear and clothing ideas, and been listening to podcasts and looking over maps and trying to find good places to scout, so wondering if there is anyone with knowledge of this unit or surrounding units and if they would be willing to go over some maps with me and see if what i am thinking is legit and let me know if I am totally thinking wrong.
I am used to whitetail hunting and have no experience with elk, but been doing lots of training on the flat land here in Texas and feel that should be a pretty good replica of the valleys and river bottoms in Montana. Since I have a bit of time before 2020 I figured I would take the slow and steady course rather than try to rush things and risk injury.
Any other inputs or experiences you all could help with would be very appreciated. Look forward to getting a taste of the elk meat every talks about!
Btw, if your blood is boiling about right now, please realize this was a sarcastic and terrible first post, mainly in response to another post I saw on here today. I am a new guy who will be going on his first elk hunt in 2020 in Montana, but other than that, the rest of the above was just a joke. Just trying to break the ice and say thanks for all the info over the years I been lurking. Hope to be able to contribute some info in the future, but for now, just waiting to get some info and experience!!
